Bill O'Reilly: "I don't do personal attacks"

On the February 23rd edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Bill O'Reilly insisted to actor and activist Mike Farrell that he doesn't "do personal attacks."

Oh REALLY? Seriously, where did he come up with that statement? "I don't do personal attacks?" Oh, sorry, we forgot. It's the same place where he got the idea that he'd only said "shut up" a couple of times. (Watch Outfoxed [2004], and you'll see O'Reilly say - and yell - "Shut up!" more than a couple of times).

Never content to let O'Reilly get away with a lie, our good friends at Media Matters for America have assembled a video montage of Classic O'Reilly:

At Media Matters for America, we monitor, analyze, and correct conservative misinformation in the U.S. media. Bill O'Reilly's steady stream of misinformation gives us plenty of material, and we thought it particularly noteworthy when he denied making personal attacks, given that he has such a long history of making them.
